Trusted by retail teams hiring across stores and seasons.
The challenge
Retail hiring never really stops.
01
Structural turnover
Retail carries 60 to 65% annual voluntary turnover, so a 50-person store replaces 30 or more staff a year.
02
Candidates can't take a live call
Shift schedules make a live phone screen hard to book, which hurts response and completion rates.
03
Seasonal peaks stretch every store
Shrinking seasonal hiring pools put more pressure on permanent staff and the managers hiring them.
How Willo helps
Screening that fits around a shift. Candidates respond whenever they're free. Hiring managers review them the same way in every store.
Any-time completion
Candidates respond between shifts, which addresses the response-rate problem directly.
Bulk invite and branded assessments
Invite candidates at scale with the same employer-branded experience in every store.
Willo Insights across every store
Hiring managers in each location review candidates against the same Blueprint without needing their own platform accounts.
Integrations
50+ native integrations, including Greenhouse and Lever, so Willo fits the systems your stores already use.
Compare candidates across every store.
Hiring managers in each location review responses, transcripts and summaries against the same Blueprint, without needing their own platform accounts.
